Abul Mohammed al-Jolani, leader of the Syrian armed group โHayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS)โ and commander-in-chief of the opposition coalition, has announced plans to publish a list of individuals responsible for torturing opposition members and civilians during the Assad regime. Syrian news outlets reported on December 10 that al-Jolani aims to expose officers involved in acts of torture and murder under Assadโs rule.
In his statement, al-Jolani emphasized the coalitionโs efforts to compile detailed information about those implicated in war crimes. He also declared that rewards would be offered to individuals who can provide credible evidence against perpetrators.
Additionally, al-Jolani called for the repatriation of those who fled Syria after being involved in such crimes, urging authorities in foreign countries to facilitate their return for accountability.
A political analyst drew parallels between this initiative and the situation in Myanmar, urging soldiers and non-CDM employees under Myanmarโs military to stand with the people, highlighting Syriaโs example as a lesson in siding with justice and accountability.
